1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE KITABIS PAK (co-packaging of tobramycin inhalation solution and PARI LC PLUS Reusable Nebulizer) is indicated for the management of cystic fibrosis in adults and pediatric patients 6 years of age and older with P.

aeruginosa .

Safety and efficacy have not been demonstrated in patients under the age of 6 years, patients with FEV 1 < 25% or > 75% predicted, or patients colonized with Burkholderia cepacia [see Clinical Studies ( 14 )].

KITABIS PAK contains tobramycin, an aminoglycoside antibacterial drug indicated for the management of cystic fibrosis in adults and pediatric patients 6 years of age and older with Pseudomonas aeruginosa ( 1 ).

6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following serious adverse reactions are described below and elsewhere in the labeling: Bronchospasm [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )] Ototoxicity [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 )] The most common adverse reactions (> 5%) in patients treated with tobramycin inhalation solution were increased cough, pharyngitis, increased sputum, dyspnea, hemoptysis, decreased lung function, voice alteration, taste perversion and rash ( 6.1 ).

Tobramycin inhalation solution was studied in two clinical studies in 258 cystic fibrosis patients ranging in age from 6 to 48 years.

Patients received tobramycin inhalation solution in alternating periods of 28 days on and 28 days off drug in addition to their standard cystic fibrosis therapy for a total of 24 weeks.

Adverse reactions reported in these studies are described below: The most frequent adverse reactions in the tobramycin inhalation arm were cough, pharyngitis, and increased sputum (see Table 1 ).

Thirty-three patients (13%) treated with tobramycin inhalation solution complained of voice alteration compared to 17 (7%) placebo patients.

Voice alteration was more common in the on-drug periods.

Eight patients from the tobramycin inhalation solution group (3%) reported tinnitus compared to no placebo patients.

All episodes were transient, resolved without discontinuation of the tobramycin inhalation solution treatment regimen, and were not associated with loss of hearing in audiograms.

Table 1 lists the percent of patients with selected adverse reactions that occurred in > 5% of tobramycin inhalation solution patients during the two Phase III studies.

Table 1: Percent of Patients with Selected Adverse Reactions Occurring in > 5% of Tobramycin Inhalation Solution Patients 1 Includes reported decreases in pulmonary function tests or decreased lung volume on chest radiograph associated with intercurrent illness or study drug administration.

Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.

Ear and labyrinth disorders Hearing loss: Some of these reports occurred in patients with previous or concomitant treatment with systemic aminoglycosides.

Patients with hearing loss frequently reported tinnitus.
